Thank you all my dear brothers and sisters. and i ALHAMDULILAAH i already prayed yesterday. thank you so much once again.
Fatimah & Ghazalz plzz check your inbox.
I think we all said too much. Mr qatar only wanted "yes" or "no" =))
Almost all of us answered same for the repeated Salat, but you are still puzzled :D
Pray as much as you want, it hurts no one.
You can.
Thanx alot and so nice of u all.. But plzz make it clear it for me that can i pray this again or not?
mr_qatar, You can perform salat-e-Istikharah again and again, until you are able to make a firm decision.
Yes you can bro. In fact you should cos you hadn't prayed it yourself. Isthikara is to be prayed by the one seeking guidance themselves.
Hi there sis..Assalamu alaikum. Yes I am constantly online =) Was wondering where you were. Hope alls well by ya!
Thanx alot and so nice of u all.. But plzz make it clear it for me that can i pray this again or not?
Hi Sister.. How are you? I logged in to ask a question for a friend. Alhamdullillah you are online..
You need to pray it yourself and in accordance to the Hadith posted by sis Khadija.
Note brother that questions on Islam are best posted in the religious forum. For one thing it's against QL rules to post in the main forum and for another thing you will get far better results,Insha Allah by posting it there. And that way others can benefit as well. Here's the link to the QL groups. Just join the religious forum and then post it there:

Barakhallah feek and may Allah increase us all in knowledge..Ameen!
The procedure for this Salah, is best described by the hadith:
On the authority of Jaabir Ibn ‘Abdullah he said: The Prophet (S) would instruct us to pray for guidance in all of our concerns, just as he would teach us a chapter from the Qur’an. He (S) would say ‘if any of you intends to undertake a mater then let him pray two supererogatory units (two rak’ah naafilah) of prayer and after which he should supplicate:
‘O Allaah, I seek Your counsel by Your knowledge and by Your power I seek strength and I ask You from Your immense favour, for verily You are able while I am not and verily You know while I do not and You are the Knower of the unseen. O Allaah, if You know this affair -and here he mentions his need- to be good for me in relation to my religion, my life, and end, then decree and facilitate it for me, and bless me with it, and if You know this affair to be ill for me towards my religion, my life, and end, then remove it from me and remove me from it , and decree for me what is good wherever it be and make me satisfied with such.’
